What kind of fish is suitable for the lotus tank?

1. Betta

The planting environment of lotus is poor. Due to the high content of humus, it is easy for insects and other plankton to breed, so the water quality in the tank is poor. Betta fish is a type of fish that is relatively tolerant of rough breeding. It is not picky about water quality and can grow tenaciously even if it is poorly managed. It is a carnivorous fish that can kill small insects and plankton in the water, and there is no need to worry about the leaves of the plant being eaten, which would be counterproductive.

2. Goldfish

Goldfish is also a carnivorous fish. It can eat all the fish and plankton in the lotus tank, preventing poor water quality from harming the plants and ensuring that the plants are not eaten. However, goldfish are relatively delicate and have high requirements for the water quality in which they grow. They may have difficulty surviving in a lotus tank.

3. Guppy

Guppies have a gentle temperament and can be raised together with other fish. They are omnivorous fish that mainly feed on plankton and small insects. It is also highly adaptable and can tolerate dirtier water, so it can survive in dirtier lotus tanks, and can fertilize the flowers while cleaning the water.

4. Willow fish

Also called "mosquito fish", it feeds on mosquito larvae. It has strong adaptability, can survive in turbid water, and can remove impurities from the tank.
